The X-inout device looks promising, and it's actually very simple. A built in, completely redesigned overflow system that's nice and compact (about 4x3x2 inches), while your existing return pump line (up to 2000 lph) snugs onto the barbed return connector. The device creates a ripple, or wave effect, that not only affects the surface, but surges gently through the entire aquarium, creating a very nice looking effect. Given the inferiority of in tank water pumps, and the fact that most aquariums are set up with inadequate plumbing for proper water motion, I'm excited about this new device. We'll see how it affects reef aquarium water motion, so keep checking back for a video of the X-inout in action on one of our holding tanks in the coming weeks!

In the process of building a display system that will incorporate the X-inout, so I'll let you know then!
